MOTIVATION

I need some motivation.

I need some deadlines.

At work (and life in general), I seem to be more productive when I have a deadline. While I like my hobbies (sewing, photography, blogging) to be an outlet or stress relief, lately I have been slacking on my sewing (perhaps because of the nice weather, vacation, whatever excuse). So, I thought I would push myself back to my creative side.

Thank goodness there are several sew-alongs which have sparked my interest this month. I have wanted to make my own clothes for a while now (thanks Adrienne for May(d) by Me!) and the Miss Emmeline Apron (this pattern looks intimidating...is it hard???) has been high on my to-sew list since I pre-ordered the pattern (thanks Kris for the Emmeline sew-along).

MAYbe in MAY I'll get two big goals accomplished thanks to my May 31 deadline.

A side note: ALL APRONS are on SALE in the shop (some discounted quite a bit)!

Sewing, knitting, photography and a little about a surgeon's life.

I do have a day job...that requires surgery. I also am a wife to my Darling Husband, mother to the most beautiful boy-girl twins and a cute cat Chloe, aunt to the cutest little girl in the world, sister to my best friend, daughter to the best parents in the world one that is still with me on this earth and the other who is watching over me and my family in Heaven, and lover of all things crafty.
